PDF RESEARCH ON GRID CONNECTION CONTROL OF WIND
Wind power generation overspeed control system
An overspeed protection system for a wind turbine having a hub and at least one rotor blade mounted to the hub includes a rotation sensor adapted for measuring a rotor speed of said wind turbine; a comparator connected to the rotation sensor and adapted for comparing the measured rotor speed with a predetermined threshold value of the rotor speed wherein the comparator outputs a signal indicative of the comparison; and an auxiliary pitch drive controller connected to the comparator and adapted to receive the signal indicative of the comparison, the auxiliary pitch drive controller being further adapted for controlling a pitch drive unit of the wind turbine independently of a main turbine controller and, if the threshold value is exceeded, to adjust a pitch angle of the rotor blade of the wind turbine so that aerodynamic braking of the wind turbine is effected.

Croatia Energy Storage Power Station Grid Connection Requirements
The grid connection process is mainly governed by the Energy Act (art. 32 et seq. Energy Act), the Regulation on issuing the electricity assent and establishing conditions and deadlines for connecting to the grid, and further special by-laws such as the Transmission/Distribution System Network Rules and the Rules on connection to the transmission/distribution grid.

How is electricity supplied in Croatia?
Customers in Croatia are supplied with electricity from power plants in Croatia, from power plants built in neighboring countries for Croatia’s needs and with electricity procured from abroad. By its size, the Croatian power system is one of the smallest power systems in Europe.
What is a Croatian power system?
The Croatian power system comprises plants and facilities for electricity production, transmission and distribution in the territory of the Republic of Croatia.
Is Croatian power system a transit system?
By reconnecting the UCTE synchronous zones 1 and 2, the Croatian power system has become a transit system again. The Croatian power system is a control area by HOPS. Together with the Slovenian power system and the power system of Bosnia and Herzegovina it constitutes the control block SLO – HR – BIH within the ENTSO-E association.
Why is the Croatian power system interconnected with other countries?
For the security reasons, quality of supply and exchange of electricity, the Croatian power system is interconnected with the systems of neighboring countries and together with them it is connected into the synchronous network of continental Europe.
Who owns a power station in Croatia?
All power stations in Croatia are owned and operated by Hrvatska elektroprivreda (HEP), the national power company. As of 2015, HEP operates 26 hydroelectric, 4 thermal and 3 cogenerating power plants with the total installed electrical power of 3.654 MW.
